About Ship Studio
Ship Studio is a free, open source desktop app that gathers the steps of agentic web development into one window. Instead of switching between a terminal, a localhost browser tab, GitHub and a hosting dashboard, the developer runs a coding agent, pushes code to a repository and deploys from the same place.
It connects to the subscriptions and accounts a user already has rather than supplying its own. Claude Code is the primary agent, with Codex, OpenCode or any other agent supported, and the site names GitHub for source control and Vercel for deployment, with Cloudflare, Netlify or other hosts also possible. The app runs on the user's own machine, which the vendor presents as a way to avoid the lock in of all in one site builders.
The product is aimed at freelancers and agencies, many of them coming from no code tools such as Webflow, who want a path into code based development without assembling the toolchain themselves. The site also hosts a gallery of downloadable templates, including a single product store built with Next.js, GSAP and Tailwind CSS, which can be used as starting points.
Ship Studio costs nothing. The pricing page states that there are no plans, seats or usage meters, and that it will always be free. Users who want to support it can contribute on GitHub or contact the founder, Julian Galluzzo. Model usage itself is billed by whichever agent subscription the user connects.
